The Japanese-style breakfast earns strong praise for quality and seafood options, though multiple guests wished for more variety across longer stays. Useful extras include free self-service laundry, complimentary drinks, and a self-serve amenity bar. Expect a straightforward stay suited to transit-heavy itineraries.

可3分鐘行到去JR高田馬場月台，兩站到新宿一站到池袋，出行方便。雨天可經東西線高田馬場站通道口lift無缝直接上酒店大堂。酒店斜對面有24小時Donki，附近有大小三間超市及無數食店，非常方便。 雖然街道熱鬧及近鐵路，但就算低層房內也十分安静。這次住23平方米雙床房，因有除鞋位及放了梳化床和枱，空間感沒想像大，但同時開兩個大喼冇問題，細喼可放床底。酒店只開了數月，很新，免費洗衣機及有海鲜丼的早餐是吸引之處。但部分職員英文耍加強。

Overall this hotel is just okay. We stayed for 4 nights so got a bit tired of the same breakfast each day, would have loved some variety. The room heat was so high and the remote control was so confusing, no instructions. The first night we were so hot we couldn't use our blankets and had to open the windows which was noisy and there were no screens. The front desk had to print out instructions for us the next day and show us how to turn on the AC. It was mid November and over 18 degrees out so this seemed a bit strange. As well, though we had booked a room for ourselves and our daughter that included free breakfast, we were asked to pay extra for our daughter's breakfast when we checked in. After showing the staff member my booking and that this was not clear anywhere and misleading, they gave us her breakfast vouchers. Each bed had only one pillow and things were just very basic. Unfortunately we misplaced one room key, and they charged me 800 yen for it, even though it's a simple plastic scan card. No other hotel has ever done that to me before. Seemed over the top. We found the train station a bit confusing compared to others and the area was a bit rowdy. I would book something a bit nicer and closer to Shinjuku or Shibuya next time, but if you need a budget stay for one or 2 nights, this will likely do ok.

The room was a double room and it was small like most in Tokyo. It was very clean and the staff were so helpful and friendly. We left our luggage after checkout and the staff didn't have any problems just keeping them for us. Though we did see lockers and most ppl were using them. The breakfast choice was sufficient. Sushi and rice in the morning was interesting and very Japanese. It was nice! The coffee was very strong which I liked, especially to wake up in the mornings! The area around the hotel was busy, just one thing I would comment, is if only the hotel has a free shuttle service to Shinjuku, as it would make travelling to the airport more straight forward. Overall, the stay was very good and pleasant!

The room we got for 2 was smaller in comparison to Western Rooms, but it served its purpose; we didnt miss the extra space. The kettle & mini fridge were a great addition. A hair dryer is provided. Overall I loved the firm bed and letting the room get chilly. Theres metro stop that conncets on the bottom of the hotel or the JR lines across the street. Convenient 7 Eleven and other small markets about 20-50ft away in case you crave late night snacks. Overall a really great loaction for the hotel. The breakfast is Japanese style, lots of rice or miso soup and a variety of raw fish as well as some griled fish. Sometimes fried/griled chicken, braised pork belly, cold meatballs, fresh squeezed juice, and yogurts.

Truly enjoyed my 5 nights stay at Vessel Inn. The receptions staffs were friendly, room was cosy and comfortable, great shower pressure and not to mention, the spread during the daily breakfast! The rooms were also directly connected to the metro station during certain hours (access only by keycard). I would highly recommend this hotel and will love to stay here again!

Loved our stay here! Great twin room size for Tokyo standards, very clean and quiet. Free washing machines readily available during the day (busier at night). Great hotel breakfast. Friendly staff. Great location, easy access to train station, many food and even shopping options right outside your door. Highly recommend.

Overall this hotel is just okay. We stayed for 4 nights so got a bit tired of the same breakfast each day, would have loved some variety. The room heat was so high and the remote control was so confusing, no instructions. The first night we were so hot we couldn't use our blankets and had to open the windows which was noisy and there were no screens. The front desk had to print out instructions for us the next day and show us how to turn on the AC. It was mid November and over 18 degrees out so this seemed a bit strange. As well, though we had booked a room for ourselves and our daughter that included free breakfast, we were asked to pay extra for our daughter's breakfast when we checked in. After showing the staff member my booking and that this was not clear anywhere and misleading, they gave us her breakfast vouchers. Each bed had only one pillow and things were just very basic. Unfortunately we misplaced one room key, and they charged me 800 yen for it, even though it's a simple plastic scan card. No other hotel has ever done that to me before. Seemed over the top. We found the train station a bit confusing compared to others and the area was a bit rowdy. I would book something a bit nicer and closer to Shinjuku or Shibuya next time, but if you need a budget stay for one or 2 nights, this will likely do ok.

非常靠近車站，基本上一出車站就見到酒店。附近好多餐廳選擇，亦有donki 開到凌晨1am。而交通亦好方便，去新宿只要10分鐘。酒店好新淨，房內空間大，開喼冇難度，雖然靠近車站但隔音唔錯，唔覺得嘈，整體好滿意會再入住。

This hotel was brand new when we stayed there 3/23. It was our two-day landing to acclimate to the Tokyo time-zone. It was a great pick. The breakfast buffet was huge and lavish. It set the standard for all the rest of our stops. The staff could not have been more patient and helpful to jet-lagged visitors. Across the street there are many small restaurants serving one or two types of Japanese and Korean food. There is an American diner in case you crave a milkshake and cheese burger, the Takanabobo train station, and a convenient always-ready taxi stand. There is a small alley-street behind the hotel which is quite lively with music and bars that many people seemed to enjoy on Friday and Saturday nights.

We followed the hotel recommendation by KinYuDee YouTube channel. As it’s recommended, Vessel Inn Takadanobaba provided us the services as seen in the KinYuDee except we didn’t know that the buffet breakfast could be very crowded between 8-9.30am. The staff were trying their best to accommodate the guests hungers in the morning. They should have arranged the time slots for guests in advance so people do not have to be accumulated at once in the small lobby area. Tax free shops, train stations and restaurants are in short distance from hotel.

This is a very basic and practical hotel in a convenient location. We found the ceiling height low. The breakfast was ok. Appreciated the free washing machine. Best part was no noise.
